Dear Child, I'll teach you what I know as far as I know it I'll teach you how to ...

in #appics6 years ago

... thread life's path
cautiously one small step at a time
first while I hold your hand
then alone on your feet
without getting injured

I'll teach you how to see
what you need to see
without wanting to see
with my eyes as your own grows
carefully with no blindspots

I'll teach you how to think
critically about everything
one issue at a time
so you don't become a fool

I'll teach you to love
thoroughly, completely,
without seeking approval,
without needing completion
will all your might
so much that no one can hurt you

I'll teachyou to dream
of beautiful places
and beautiful people
in beautiful times
so vividly that they can't steal it from you

Dear Child,
I'll teach you what I know
as far as I know it
and What I cannot teach you,
You'll learn yourself in bits and pieces
under life's tutelage.

O.A.
